CacheStorageHierarchy=(Entry=ExampleDDC)
ExampleS3=(Type=VirtualizationPlusS3, BucketUrl="https://s3.amazonaws.com/examplebucket", Region="us-east-1", AccessKey=" AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE", SecretKey="wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY")
ExampleDDC=(Type=DDCBackend)

S3 compatible object storage

The VirtualizationPlusS3 backend supports any S3 compatible object storage. Tested with AWS S3, Backblaze B2, and Wasabi.

Required configuration:

• BucketUrl: Target bucket location
• Region: Target bucket region
• AccessKey: Access key ID
• SecretKey: Secret access key

Optional configuration:

• CheckExistsBeforePush: (defaults to true) Whether to check if a payload exists before attempting to push; useful as a cost-cutting measure for providers that charge more for GetObject than PutObject requests (e.g. Backblaze)
